Sheath Dress

Happy Tuesday to you all!
Today post is my latest dress for Mad Men Dress Challenge 2, this challenge is built by Julia from juliabobin.com. I never saw Mad Men TV show but some of their dresses inspired me. I love Betty, Peggy and Megan style. And I am planning to make more dresses inspired by them in the future :))
For this challenge I chose Betty Draper dress, I love the simple yet elegant sheath dress that she wore on Mad Men season 5.

Of course my dress is not exactly like her but I am very happy with it. Besides I will wear it on one of my special occasion, I will also be able to participate in the sewing challenge :)

This is a very simple style sheath dress with deep V back, middle back zipper and blind hem stitching. I used the pattern from BurdaStyle Sheath Dress size 34 for the bodice and size 36 for the skirts, so I have to make pattern alterations. Here is the original pattern from BurdaStyle,
